Re: fungicide -Reply -Reply

I hope this doesn't sound too stupid, but how do you identify plants with a
fungus?  This is only my second year of gardening and I am only starting to
see some infestations of something.  My lupines have some sort of insect
infestation - I think.

Could I use the baking soda or camomile tea on them or is it not the same
thing?
